A Remarkable Growth.

The many friends Of Messrs. Montgom'
cry Ward & Co.. formerly at 227 and 229
Wabash Az, Chicago, will be glad to
know that the rapid growth Of their bust
ness has forced them to remove from Wa.
bash Av., to Ill, 112. 113 and ia Michi.
gan Av., where they have purchased a
magnificent building, the seven floors OF
which they occupy exclusively. These
seven floors are each 100x165 feet, aggre-
eating nearly 1901 900 square feet OF
(about 8 scres) of floor surface. The new
quarters will enable them to handle their
large business to the better advantage of
their thousands OF customers. Fifteen
years ago MessYs. Montgomery Ward &
%. occupied but q and that only
25x40 feet. The enormous growth Of their
business during the fifteen years can only
be explained by the fact that they sell di.
rect to customers. supplying all their
wants, and never misrepresent any article.
The success Of this house proves the old
saying, that " Honesty is the best policy"
and from this policy they never deviste.

Times are and have been dull in Eureka.
Mining is depressed. Business men are

fallen of to some extent, but a goodly part
Of the surplus that has foated out was of
the non.producing class, and their rid
dance 10 more beneficial than otherwise.
There are fewer drones 10 support. As a
matter Of fact, the opportunities for steady
employment for the people remaining here

Several causes have operated to produce
The shriukage in our business and popula.
ton. The Chief cause Ia perhaps the low
price OF silver. Another cause may be
found we think, in the failure Of our leading
mining companies TO carry forward the
work OF prospecting and development on
an extensive and systematic scale. This
they will do 10 time. They have too
much money invested In their respective
plants not to make q strong united effort
for ore in the deeper levels Of Ruby Hill.
All Of the indications point to better
prices for silver in the near future. The
decline in the output and the increasing
demand for 10 must bring about this re-
suit. With silver at par there will be
money forthcoming TO invest in mines.
And where can q better field be found
